How do climate factors affect temperature patterns where you live?

Patterns of air circulation in the atmosphere (polar & temperate climates)

Climate processes also influenced by plate tectonics (ex. formation of rain shadows)

The climate of any particular place is influenced by a host of interacting factors. These include latitude, elevation, nearby water, ocean currents, topography, vegetation, and prevailing winds. The global climate system and any changes that occur within it also influence local climate.
